I think what he meant is that the sensor that feeds the gauge information has bit the dust. I would say this sensor doesn't affect cooling as it only spins the gauge. You should fix it though because if your radiator springs a leak, you won't realize it until it is too late.
The other sensor he is referring to tells the computer what the temperature is so it knows when to kick on the fans. If this sensor goes bad, then you risk overheating because the computer won't turn on the fans to cool it down.
